Howdy Manco!!
Frank De Kova played Mexicans, Indians, Hebrews, mob hit men, you name it, he played it. He appeared in Big Sky with Kirk Douglas, The Ten Commandments with Charleston Heston, The Man From Laramie with Jimmy Stewart and Apache Territory and on every t.v. western on t.v., as one character or another. Believe it or not, he was of Italian descent and will probably be best remembered for his character of Chief Wild Eagle on the t.v. western comedy, F Troop.
I first saw Patrick Duffy on the short lived t.v. series, Man From Atlantis, where he played some sort of frog/fish man. He then landed the role of Bobby Ewing on the hit t.v. series, Dallas. He has appeared in a couple of westerns, such as Texas and Desolation Canyon with Stacy Keach.
Kurt Russell is the son of western character actor Bing Russell. He first appeared in, It Happened At The World's fair with Elvis Presley and was so impressed with him, that he memorized Presley's speech and demeanor so well, that he later played the lead in the made for t.v. film, Elvis, and also in 3000 Miles To Graceland. He appeared with Charles Bronson in the t.v. series, The Travels Of Jamie McPheeters. Russell has made some great films, such as Tombstone, which he also directed and owns the rights to the masters and Silkwood and Breakdown, but he has also made some not so good films, like the Escape From New York and L.A films and one of his most recent, Grindproof.
